Venue
ASPO 2012 will take place at Palais Niederösterreich, a historic building in the first district of Vienna, close to many sights of Vienna´s inner city
The Palais has had a very eventful history. It was originally the home of the so-called estates, the political representatives of upper classes, knights, prelates and towns. The estates acquired the property in 1513 in order to be near the reigning prince and to hold assemblies in Vienna. Precious interiours such as the “Landhauskapelle” and the “Gotisches Zimmer” have been preserved from this late Gothic building.

Anyone planning to attend??
My son left today to study abroad in Copenhagen for a semester. Of course, he plans to do some travel while in Europe, including Vienna. So when I showed him that the ASPO conference is in Vienna, he got excited. So expect one aspiring peak oil student to attend.
